This coming new year don’t you wish that you’ll read more than last year? Reading is a good way to enhance and sharpen our brains by imagining the things that we read. It can takes us further in places we've never imagined before and it will help us analyze each phrase and situation as if we are the main character, a hero or a villain in the story.
But reading has some flaws too like the books that we want is a bit pricey or it will eat up a lot of space and dust in the living room or in the shelves. And sometimes reading can hurt our eyes too; this is why it is advisable to rest the eyes after a long read.
In the meantime while you are considering reading more books this year checkout this book entitled Astigirl: A Grown Girl Living on Her Own Terms. Astigirl is a collection of blog entries by Tweet Sering, she documents her growth from the girl she was before to the girl she is today. I also checked it online and so far, all reviews and feedback about it were good and positive.
Book Description:
Far from the grownup she thought she would be, Tweet Sering, 30-plus and tormented by a raging discontent with stale notions of how one must live, strips herself of the trappings of adulthood—no job, no savings, no insurance, and not even a credit card—and resolves to begin growing up again.In this memoir that is by turns sharply funny, intelligent, outspoken, but also pained and bewildered, Tweet shows her readers how being astray can turn into being astig (tough). Her essays remind us of long, late-night chats with our favorite friend, so that the substance of the go-for-broke account of her journey is not muddled by easy sentiment, but shines with a desire to cheer us on into our own journeys of being a tough girl. An Astigirl.
